This is my build: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/WFCpQ7

Is the RAM low enough to work with the CPU cooler?

Also If you have any suggestions about my build please tell me!

By answering you are really helping me alot.

Definitely. Every time someone has an air cooler which tend to be too big I will always recommend any G.Skill series RAM. I plan to build one with this. ;)

Trident is a low profile series from GSkill. It'll fit any cooler.

The NH D15 is a good cooler to use with an i7 4790k.

I'd prefer the ASRock Z97 Extreme 6 per http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/enthusiast-z97-moth...

And the Seagate Barracuda 2 TB drive.

The evga Supernova is a good power supply. I gather you got 1000W to be able to run 2 x 780Ti later.

I think you've gone overboard with the case fans. Just try the case as is before deciding whether to change/add fans.

Trident X is not low profile and is a kind of snug fit, but it does fit, see below

the good thing with them is if you think too snug, the top fin is removable, there's a small screw at either end of the fin

What exactly is that fin for? Is there any downside to removing it? Thanks!

It helps heat dispersal, they may run a couple degrees warmer with out them, but the rest dowes well and keeps them cool
